JConcepts Droop Gauge & Blocks

JConcepts has released a new Droop Gauge & Droop Blocks for both 1:8 & 1:10 use. With droop one of the most important adjustments on an RC vehicle, JConcepts set out to create a versatile yet accurate system to add to their lineup. Spencer Rivkin was heavily involved in this project, pushing the idea as a necessary accessory from the JC team. Going back to his days working with mentor Brian Kinwald, Spencer was taught to adjust droop by measuring the axle height relative to the bottom of the chassis. The blocks are built at 36mm in height for 1:8 Offroad racing, and 30mm is available by rotating the block 90 degrees for 1:10 racing. The all-aluminium machined blocks are both tall and lightweight, designed to fit into the larger compartments of a racer’s toolbox. The black anodised item is highlighted with an attached blue anodised piece, laser-etched and marked for height convenience. The blocks are ineffective without a proper measuring device, and the JConcepts droop gauge is labeled in multiple ways to suit the scale of the offroad vehicle.

Factory Team RC8B4.1 Shock Towers | Shock Standoffs

New from Team Associated’s optional parts brand Factory Team Carbon Fibre Shock Towers and Aluminium Shock Standoffs for the RC8B4.1 1:8 Buggy. The 5mm Front and 4mm rear shock tower together with hard-anodised aluminium shock standoffs lower the centre of gravity. The updated design towers require shorter standoffs #81657 due to the solid cross-section around the shock mount screws. Overall, this is the most durable way to execute this lightweight design. The Front tower fits the RC8B4.1 26.5mm kit front shocks and with the Rear tower fits 36.5mm kit rear shocks. The new hard-anodised alu shock standoffs come in two different sets. One is set is the standard kit length 14mm and 17mm (distance from the base to the pivot ball) while the other is a custom shorter set with 12.5mm and 16mm offset intended to mate with the FT carbon fiber shock towers which do not have the recessed pockets that the aluminium kit towers have.

Reedy Sonic 900/900XL 1:8 Competition Motors

Reedy has released an all-new range of Sonic 900 and 900XL Competition motors for 1:8 eBuggy and eTruggy. Several months of development by engineering staff and factory team drivers has resulted in motors that deliver performance that far exceeds what is required at the highest level of competition. The Sonic 900, available in both 1900kV and 2100kV versions, is intended for use in 1:8 eBuggy classes. Each version comes with a unique rotor which is interchangeable between both and sold separately to fine tune power output and delivery for specific track conditions and driver preference. The Sonic 900XL features a longer, higher torque stator for heavier 1:8 eTruggy use. However, the 900 and 900XL are interchangeable between chassis types to create a wide range of performance options suitable for a wide variety of track conditions. The motors feature a precision CNC-machined case with adjustable timing while an integrated heat sink lowers operating temperatures, which results in less fade over the course of a race, longer run times, and increased motor life. Sensored operation results in a smooth and controllable power band while a powerful 4-pole rotor is supported by precision ball bearings for reliability.
